Re: 2018 Operation

Hi
Can anyone explain why Atlas isn’t getting the same lumi as CMS and shed some light into what happened with the magnet?
Thanks
Joao

ATLAS requested the lower lumi. I'm guessing there's little point stressing the computing resources collecting high-pileup data with the magnet off. I'll try to find out what the problem with the magnet is, although I'm sure mfb will tell us soon enough.

From what I've heard, it was shut down on purpose to do a special run for the liquid argon calorimeter. I'm not sure I believe that.
